Genomes on the Cloud (GotCloud)
To handle the increasing volume of next generation sequencing and genotyping data, we created and developed software pipelines called Genomes on the Cloud (GotCloud) for:
- Mapping
- Variant Calling
Key Features:
- Scalable to tens of thousands of samples
- Robust against unexpected system failure using GNU make
- Massively parallel, can run hundreds of jobs
- Easy to use - Automates series of configurable steps
- Available on Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
- Run on local machines/clusters
- Available via Debian Packages
The following describes the use of this software with the Amazon Web Services (https://aws.amazon.com/),
but you can just as easily use the pipelines on your own machine(s) by just installing them.
